Missed Politico's latest President Dreamy worship? Ace, others spank the squeeing lapdogs

Another day, another round of fanboy squeeing from the lapdogs at Politico. Take a gander at this:

.@politico trots out 2009's conventional wisdom for 2013: Obama's just too rational http://t.co/YLexYFF3yI

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

No, seriously. Politico said that, in an article titled, “What’s wrong with Barack Obama?” By wrong, they mean oh-so-dreamy. Beclown! Beclown like the wind!

John Sexton at Breitbart.com has more:

Good grief. Are we still claiming the President is a uniter not a divider? How much more evidence do we need that he is hyper-competitive in all areas especially politics. Have the authors read fellow Politico scribe Glenn Thrush’s e-book in which he quotes a campaign aide saying “Don’t let the Mr. Cool shit fool you…” How about the vignette where Obama responds to a possible Rubio run for VP saying “Tell your boy to watch it. He might get his ass kicked.” That’s the voice of synthesis and moderation?

The claim that Obama is a “pathological rationalist,” i.e. rational to a fault, is even less defensible. Any sizzle reel of Obama highlights will be drawn not from rationalism but from his endless string of emotional appeals to the public. Whether it’s Sandy Hook or immigration reform or the shooting of Trayvon Martin, Obama’s standard mode is not logos but pathos. Whether he wants to overturn Stand Your Ground or pass health reform, Obama is always focused on some victim who can serve as a rhetorical poster child for his campaign.

Read the whole thing.

Ace of Spades, with the hilarious aid of fellow Twitter users, once again took on the task of shaming the shameless.

I really want to blaspheme but I'll just use an acronym. JCAM. Is this really the Freshest Take the brain trust at @politico can muster?

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

how many ckufing times is the left media going to trot out the old standbys of "He's just TOOOO rational and smart" and "poor messaging"?

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

OMF. (oh my f***.) Hey @politico maybe you can run a Fresh New Take on Eisenhower's laziness too.

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

even when ostensibly diagnosing Obama's failures @politico feels the need to compliment him. Hey, maybe his cock is just too damn big, too.

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

There's a Fresh New Take the media can trot out as a compliment-thinly-veiled-as-worshipful-praise. @politico

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

.@AceofSpadesHQ "pathological rationalist," That's like saying "my biggest flaw is that I work too hard" on a employment interview.

— Arthur Kimes (@ComradeArthur) September 18, 2013

You know Obama's REAL problem? It's simple: He just cares too much about The Middle Class. #SomeoneHadToSayIt

Because, awesome you guys! Silly rubes just don’t get the nuance-y nuance of his awesomeness.

hey @politico Mo Dowd just called, she wants her weak 2009 spin back. oh wait she doesn't, she's moved on to New Things. You can keep it.

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

@AceofSpadesHQ He reached out his hand to save us but we slapped it away.

— Nibiru (@nibirucometh) September 18, 2013

Wiping tears!

@AceofSpadesHQ We all carry water for those whom we agree. Theirs must be getting very heavy.

If such a brilliant mind can't figure out how to effectively message his utopian programs after 5 yrs, isn't that our fault? @AceofSpadesHQ

— From the Land of Sky Blue Waters ?? (@HammsLager) September 18, 2013

Criminy, why do we all keep letting Obama down? What is wrong with us? Sheesh!

as that last RT just suggests, at some point the media/@politico must realize that the "Too Smart" spin contradicts the "Poor Messaging" one

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

I am just too effing smart to manage to effectively communicate my beliefs to you ckuking morons

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

i'm just so ckufing smart I sorta don't know how to talk

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

A lot of people are "Too Smart" to perform their jobs effectively. An awful lot of them work at @politico, so this makes sense to them.

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

Oh, snap!

You know, every time I got fired, my bosses told me the same thing: "You're too smart to flourish in this environment."

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

Every time I had a feeling I was going to get fired, I dreaded my boss pulling me aside and giving me the "Too Rational" talk.

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 18, 2013

We’ve all been there, huh? It’s the cross we must bear.

I don't know how many bosses have told me "Dude you're making the entire rest of the company look like slackers" in my exit interview.

— Ursus, Director of Weather and Banana Programming (@AceofSpadesHQ) September 19, 2013

Probably six or seven hundred, at least.

"As Obama’s capacity for complex thought can become a liability, so, too, can his cool rationality."

— Arthur Kimes (@ComradeArthur) September 19, 2013

Dude. Lapdogs have their drool buckets, clearly. But we need some hurl buckets after that one! Again.

The ever-genius Iowahawk brings it all home:

@AceofSpadesHQ If only he were ruling a nation more worthy of his divine rationality.

— David Burge (@iowahawkblog) September 18, 2013

.@iowahawkblog @instapundit @AceofSpadesHQ This is the fallacy of attributing to nuance that which should be called incompetence.

— Mark O. Van Wagoner (@VanWagoner) September 18, 2013

@AceofSpadesHQ Dingdingding. When they write about Obama, they're writing about themselves.

— David Burge (@iowahawkblog) September 18, 2013

Bingo. They are, of course, Smarter Than You.

Pitiful, lapdogs. Pitiful.
